Joe Biden may become the next president, which makes me want to chug bleach, but down-ticket was a different story. Democrats failed miserably to retake the Senate. At the state level, Democrats failed to retake key state legislatures. For the next decade, the GOP remains in control of a lot of the congressional maps. Yet, NBC News said it’s a foregone conclusion. Democrats will keep the House:
Democrats will maintain control of the House of Representatives, NBC News projects, but their path to taking control of the Senate has narrowed significantly as numerous Republican incumbents fended off strong opposition.Democrats failed to pick up some of the Senate seats they were banking on to capture a majority. Their hopes for a big night were dashed up and down the ballot, as President Donald Trump outperformed his polls against Joe Biden in a race still to be decided.
In Maine, Republican Sen. Susan Collins was declared by NBC News as the apparent winner.
416 House races appear decided Democrats 212 Republicans 204 (+10)
19 Seats remain, GOP lead in 10
To win 218 (and House majority), GOP would need to win all the districts they are leading in, plus: CA-25 GA-07 PA-17 UT-04 — Adrian Gray (@adrian_gray) November 5, 2020
Rs get the benefit of Trump's insane turnout among marginal cultural conservatives deciding to vote plus some traditional Rs who won't vote for Trump but still vote R downballot. https://t.co/FxjXandg5b — Sean T at RCP (@SeanTrende) November 5, 2020
House Races Called As Of Now
Dems 212 GOP 205 (+11) — Political Polls (@PpollingNumbers) November 5, 2020
In fact, the 2020 House race prediction by these polling experts was that Democrats would gain seats. They’re not. In fact, they’ve lost seats and now it may be too early to say that the House will be firmly in Democratic hands. Right now, the Republicans have gained 10 seats. They are on the cusp of retaking the House. There are 19 House races left. In ten, the Republican is leading. If the GOP wins those races, plus, California 25th, Georgia Seventh, Pennsylvania seventeenth, and Utah’s Fourth congressional races—they take the House. In CA 25, Republican Rep. Mike Garcia is trailing. In Georgia 7th, Republican Rich McCormick is also trailing, but these are razor-thin margins, folks. In PA 17, incumbent Conor Lamb, Democrat, declared victory but Republican Sean Parnell isn’t conceding. And in Utah’s 4th congressional race, Republican Burgess Owens has taken the lead against Democratic Rep. Ben McAdams.
Either way, the Democratic majority has been whittled down big league, which means no mandate for the insane action items the far left wants to be enacted.
Oh, and did I mentioned that GOP women have dominated this cycle?

We’ll keep you updated.
I'll part with what Virginia Rep. Abigail Spanberger said in a caucus call today. She appears to win re-election, albeit barely, noting that the defund the police and socialism antics could have torpedoed her bid for a second term. She also said the party is heading for rocky shoals in 2022 if they continue with their 2020 messaging. In fact, she said they'll "get f**king torn apart."
Spanberger on the Dem caucus call: We lost races we shouldn’t have lost. Defund police almost cost me my race bc of an attack ad. Don’t say socialism ever again. Need to get back to basics. (Is yelling.) — Erica Werner (@ericawerner) November 5, 2020If we run this race again we will get fucking torn apart again in 2022, Spanberger says — Erica Werner (@ericawerner) November 5, 2020
“It will be fun to watch that and more fun watching Nancy go down in defeat.”
Not to be too crude about it, but I want to see that giant GAVEL of hers shoved up her ample RUMP as she heads out the door!
I loathe that evil beotch!
“Pelosi may well be gone.”
And replaced by Schiff?
If Rs are close to 218, they need to seize control so they can start dismantling the stifling regulatory apparatus of FedGov, which is what they can do to drain the Swamp.

I’m with you. That’s exactly how I feel.
>>I said it was over when O’bummer won.<<
You were correct. This is the results in slow motion.
I am old enough and, frankly, rich enough to retreat to anywhere in the world. But as I mourn the NFL with some tears, I openly cry for my beloved county.
The last hope of freedom is lost forever.
I agree....
It would be nice to have the Senate *and* the House.
It ain’t over until the fat lady sings. There was so much fraud that it is not unlikely that some realignment of house seats will take place. President Trump is moving the ball down the court and people who are ready to accept the fraud & move on are in for a shock.
Right now, the Republicans would have 214 seats, but there are at least four seats still out. It’s a longshot, but a bare majority is still possible.
Larry suppose after AZ, GA and PA finish counting that Trump ‘loses’ those states, can he get a recount on ALL of the votes in those three states? Surely that’s where a lot of illegal votes will be identified.
Can he also request recounts in WI, MI, MN and VA too?
You can’t just get a recount. It jas to be within a margin. I don’t know if that margin differs from state to state or what.
May be logical but you would not sell it to voters. Just my opinion.
You know I was thinking that Dems advertised their cheating
ways, and lost votes, just like their looting and arson lost votes, and Dems letting Antifa and Blm invade the suburbs cost them Indies and women. We see many GOP women
just got elected to congress most likely suburban women
came out to vote because of Dems lawlessness
I advised my beloved husband yesterday (04 Nov) that I would be working a phone bank for Republicans come 2020. I cannot walk the area because of medical issues along with an issue of being in stressful environments.... a fear factor.... caused immediate vomiting.... not best seen.... LOL
Using a phone, however, is something I do very well at.....
I imagine once I’m acclimated to the office and understand the information provided, I will do just fine. Looking forward to it.
:)
“It will be fun to watch that and more fun watching Nancy go down in defeat.”
Yeah, she’ll probably do the wicked witch meltdown like on the Wizard of Oz.
“a fear factor.... caused immediate vomiting.... “
Hmm... I get the same reaction thinking about the head of a crime family becoming President of the United States.
Are federal Congressmen/women subject to recall?
Under the DNC election fraud that seems to be occurring, is there anyway a sustained effort to post election flip a few Congressional seats to the R side of the House?
No need to be sorry, spread the idea far and wide. Help the left collapse under their own stupidity.
